About Rice Iron & Metal Inc
Rice Iron & Metal Inc, a scrap metal recycling business in Valdosta, Georgia, takes inbound scrap from individual sellers and small contractors. The site provides a paid intake point for metal that would otherwise sit unused, and is one of the salvage options in the surrounding county. There is no accepted-materials list on file for this site in our directory at present, and the field remains open. On a practical level, posted hours are available for visitors to check and a phone line is on file. The directory carries what the yard chose to publish about its day-to-day inbound flow and contact channels, surfaced here as a working baseline for sellers planning a visit to the gate. On heavier ferrous loads, a rough weight in pounds or tons matters for the quote — sellers should bring a working estimate so the yard can price the inbound and book gate timing accordingly. A short call ahead of the drive sorts both items out before any wheels turn.
